wmsettings
Provides an Editor UI and Developer API for managing custom settings
Why?
Provides an Editor UI and Developers API for setting/getting content that needs to be all over the place but isn't exactly config, and isn't exactly entity stuff.
How does it work?
Technically you create config keys (eg global
or site-settings
). This key gets linked directly to exactly one bundle in the settings
entity type.
Developers are free to create bundles/fields in the entity type settings
themselves, and create keys to refer to them.
Adding configs
On /admin/config/wmsettings
one can add settings. A setting effectively links a machine name to a specific entity id. The entity gets autocreated.
You can also add configs by directly writing config files I suppose, for the brave that feel up to it. Just follow the wmsettings.schema.yml for that.
Editor UI
The administrative interface for editors is at admin/content/wmsettings
. Note that:
- The
administer wmsettings content
permission + edit permissions for thesettings
entity type will be required to edit the settings - Editors should only be able to edit these autocreated entities. Do NOT provide direct access to creation/deletion of settings entitites.
Developers API
There are several ways to access the entity for a key.
1. The service.
2. The module function.
3. The fill function.
Returns a quick flattened array of all values in a setting, given field names and field types. Not a lot of field types are supported now.
Adding Tabs (local tasks) to settings for your custom routes
Drupal requires at least two tasks to show them, so for the sake of completeness this example loads two tasks too:
